Abstract
Equipment such as new energy vehicles, rail traffic, and wind power generation often work under the extreme electric conditions with high frequency and high voltage. To ensure the insulation performance of bearings, resist the electrical erosion damage on the raceway, and extend the service life of bearings and motors, the high-quality and low-damage surface of Al2O3-TiO2 composite ceramic coatings on the insulation bearing are highly demanded. In this paper, a novel chemical and mechanical lapping method for the Al2O3-TiO2 composite ceramic coating was developed by combining the diamond abrasives pad structured with the triangular grooves array and the NaOH alkaline solution. The material removal mechanism and the surface morphology of the coating were investigated from the perspective of chemical and mechanical synergy, through the X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy tests, the nano-indentation test, the theoretical modeling and simulation of roughness, and the lapping experiments.
The coating was fabricated on the bearing's outer ring by plasma thermal spraying with Al2O3 and TiO2 composite powders, which contained the Al, Ti and O elements respectively with weight proportions of 34.54wt.%, 2.17wt.% and 63.29wt.%. The Al2O3 and TiO2 components were distributed on the coating's surface respectively with volume proportions of 86 and 14%. The samples were immersed in the NaOH solution for 24 hours, the chemical reaction between Al2O3 and NaOH solution was demonstrated by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy tests, indicating in the spectrum of element O that the content of the Al-O bond decreased from the original 48.39% to 28.52% after the reaction, while the content of the Al-OH bond increased from the original 0 to 47.19% after the reaction. After that, the nano-indentation tests were conducted on the Al2O3 and TiO2 components of the coating before and after the chemical reaction, respectively. It was revealed that the hardness 70.64 GPa and Young's modulus 506.93 GPa of Al2O3 on the original surface were reduced to 18.31 GPa and 112.03 GPa on the chemically reacted surface, respectively, demonstrating the generation of a softened layer due to the chemical reaction for the ductile removal of the brittle coating.
A simulation and prediction mathematical model of surface roughness was established for the chemical and mechanical lapping of Al2O3 and TiO2 composite ceramic coatings, based on the multi-scale rough contact mechanics theory which was divided in sections of macro-scale contact, micro-scale contact, material removal and roughness modeling, considering the mechanical properties of different components on the coating surface according to the nano-indentation tests. This theoretical model was verified in the experimental evolution of surface roughness with time.
The ductile removal of brittle Al2O3 component with low damage by chemical and mechanical lapping was demonstrated experimentally. In addition, the influences of abrasives size, loading force and abrasives pad's rotational speed on the surface morphology and roughness as well as the material removal rate were investigated experimentally. Finally, under conditions of abrasives size 3 μm, loading force 14 N and pad's speed 160 r/min, the workpiece's surface roughness was efficiently reduced from the initial avg. Ra 2.864 μm to the final avg. Ra 0.285 μm within 5 minutes, as well as reached avg. Ra 0.108 μm after 20 minutes. Compared with the radial micro cracks in a maximum size of 4.85 μm induced by the traditional lapping, the chemical and mechanical lapping could achieve nearly no micro cracks on the surface. It is concluded that the synergistic effect of mechanical removal and chemical reaction is crucial to obtain a good surface of the coating, and the loading force and the pad's speed can be regarded as important adjustment parameters; besides, the factors including chemical reaction, abrasives size, loading force and abrasives pad's rotational speed have considerable impacts on the material removal rate, surface roughness and morphology.
